Polished Brass Hinge with Decorative Finials
This polished brass hinge adds a decorative finishing touch to furniture and cabinet projects. Made from die cast brass, SKU 12248 combines a bright finish with finials that extend beyond the hinge body. Its distinctive proportions make the overall height an important part of planning your installation.
The hinge measures 2 1/4″ x 2 1/8″ when open. The finial height is 4 3/4″. These are separate measurements, so check both when comparing this item with an existing hinge. In particular, allow enough space above and below the hinge body for the finials.

Choosing the Right Fit
Before ordering, measure your current hardware and the area where the replacement will sit. First, compare the open hinge dimensions with the space available. Next, check the full finial height. This helps you assess whether nearby trim or other furniture details could interfere with the fit.
Also, compare the mounting arrangement with your existing hinge. Overall dimensions alone do not establish whether two hinges share the same screw positions. If you are replacing several hinges, check each location before choosing your hardware.
Coordinating the Finish
The polished surface offers a bright brass appearance. Consider how it will look alongside your knobs, pulls, locks, and other visible fittings. For example, compare it with the hardware on nearby doors or drawers to decide whether the finish suits your project.
For a restoration, use your existing hardware as a reference for both appearance and fit. For a new project, plan the hinge position before preparing the mounting area. Taking these steps helps you choose hardware that complements the furniture while allowing room for the decorative finials.
Choose SKU 12248 when its dimensions, finish, and mounting arrangement meet your project’s needs.
